        Your complaint is that there is no pre-built binary for your sound-card. This is not a fault of Linux

Fault? I used to think that when linux apologists said this they knew it was bullshit, but I've started to suspect otherwise. A computer is a tool. A piece of software is a tool. If a tool doesn't do what I want, I don't use it. Instead, I get a tool that does. And I certainly don't sit there with a broken tool and say "oh, but it's not their fault, so I don't mind" or "if they had more market share, I'm sure this would work, and that's almost the same as me having a computer that can play sound".
